Slammed Some More

The game between the Texas Rangers and LA Dodgers was even bigger than Friday's game between the Royals and Giants. We were told that yesterday's game would be a larger crowd, and it was - we had 8153 fans yesterday. We did a great job keeping up with the crowd at our stand which began backing up at around 12:30. We didn't do so well at balancing receipts to goods sold at the end of the day. Our discrepancy was $1200 on receipts totaling over $15K. I again re-counted all the inventory and everything checked out, so the problem is almost definitely at the registers where one - or more - of our cashiers isn't entering correct amounts on transactions. The problem is further frustrating because this company - Aramark - doesn't have any way to verify transactions at the registers. There is no tape run at the end of the day and the registers are, basically, as Josie said just adding machines. I never heard of any company having such loose standards to verify business for each day. Our manager is going to have to implement some kind of system in order to find out where these discrepancies are occurring.

Today's game between the KC Royals and CO Rockies ends our work week. Yay!! Both of us are really dragging right now and Josie is even suffering from either an allergy or sinus condition from the dry air. We both will be happy to see this second week end which puts us almost half way through our schedule.

We received our AZ license plate for the Jeep yesterday. I will put that on the car this morning. I will eventually replace it with a FL plate, but I need to research the best time for doing that. I seem to remember that FL has a law that you must own a vehicle for at least six months to be exempt from additional sales tax liability when registering it in the state. Whenever I transfer the registration to FL, we will be getting a refund on a portion of the AZ registration fee which is much higher than FL's fee. The longer I have to wait to make the transfer, the smaller the refund I will get, so I am motivated to find the answer...
